Hello and welcome! I am so glad you are here and have made a courageous choice to seek healing. Like our physical health, I believe we must also take into consideration the “vital signs” (mood swings, sadness, irritability, excessive worry, etc.) that indicate the state of our mental health. Whether it is caused by stress from overwhelming responsibilities, parenting, past trauma, or even just having difficulty communicating needs to family members and friends, I believe these can all be signs that we need a little extra support and I would like to be that support for you.

Imagine a world where you like who you truly are at the core. A world where you no longer worry about the judgement of others. This is that door. I invite you to walk though it together. When you're tired of being tired and have tried other options that seem to come back to the same end, this is the beginning of something different. This is the chance to move through your fear of abandonment and rejection, and the chance to begin to lead your authentic life. My intention is to walk with you on the journey of knowing yourself. I strongly believe in open curiosity paired with synergy which is a bedrock to a trust-based relationship.

My focus at the outset of therapy and throughout is to provide you an open, supportive, and encouraging atmosphere. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment for you to begin to process and heal. I belief that the therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance for the therapeutic journey to be effective. For this reason, building strong and collaborative trusting relationships with you is essential. It is my view that every individual is unique and arrives in therapy with their own unique strengths. I see to empower you to identify and utilize those strengths to create meaningful change.

We all have unique stories that have shaped us. I believe healing is most transformative when we begin to understand the intersections that make us whole: the parts of ourselves that we value and celebrate as well as the parts that we criticize, deny or dislike. I want to know how you feel about your story and how it has impacted your sense of wholeness. My goal is to help you build a better understanding of the pain, distress or fear that holds you back from achieving the life you want so you can begin to make room for more joy and a meaningful existence.

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness." I believe that client care absolutely should be individualized (in collaboration with the individual), contain healthy coping skills, and help build a social support network that can help him/her/them progress towards a much happier future.

Life can be difficult to navigate at times. When hardships get thrown at us, we may get flooded with emotion and feel at a loss on how to deal with them head on. During these times, we may find ourselves withdrawing from others or lashing out towards our loved ones. When we get trapped in our negative thoughts, we may feel like there’s no escape. Talking to someone about these challenges and hardships can be the beginning of the healing process. I provide a non-judgmental, safe environment for my clients to express themselves. I encourage clients to share their story in order to help them discover alternative options/perspectives

Yes, emotions can suck sometimes. They can be unbearable and overwhelming but you're not alone - I am available to help you navigate through it. As a Filipino-American queer male, my practice is geared towards helping individuals that struggle with identity, lingering traumas, or anxiety/worry about their future especially those within the Asian-American Pacific Islander (AAPI) and LGBTQ+ communities. Seeking help and talking about some of our darkest and most difficult moments can be really challenging. Wherever you are in your journey, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

I enjoy working with young adult and adolescent clients and the age-specific issues that these groups commonly experience. It's so difficult to be at an age where you're expected to act like an adult but are still treated like a child - this experience can be confusing and breed feelings of self-doubt and insecurity. I work with my clients to help normalize these feelings and experiences as well as help them make sense of things in the world and within themselves through the transition from adolescence into adulthood.

Hello, my name is Allison. As a therapist, I’m passionate about helping people in unfulfilling relationships learn how to build stronger intimate connections. Many of the individuals and couples I work with come to me because they are feeling emotionally and physically out of touch with their partners. My practice focuses on helping those partners communicate effectively and feel more seen, heard, and understood in the relationship. I work from a relational-cultural perspective, aiming to understand each person within the larger systems they exist in, and helping to bridge the gap in communication by getting to the root of conflict.

To the outside world it seems as though you have it all together and for some of those things maybe you do, but there is still something missing? There is still a void that you keep trying to fill? You search for love and it just does not turn out how you thought? Maybe you have experienced trauma in your childhood and wonder if that has anything to do with why things are going the way they are now? As you continue through life, you still think about all the losses you have had, the loss of your childhood, the loss of a career, the loss of a loved one and are thinking "Seriously God?!" You just want to feel better & begin healing.
